Virgin settings on M3100?

I have recently moved from orange to virgin and they cannot help me set up my M3100 for internet, picture messaging, email etc.
Has anyone done this and can they tell me how to do it. I tried the Virgin Cab posted on this site but it didn't work.
Virgin gave me the settings over the phone but I haven't had any success putting them in manually.
I miss being able to email etc
Help please
Elaine

Since you've moved Networks, your old network connections are probably still present on your device. I know you tried the CAB file to install the Virgin network connections and it's probably due to the presence of the old network details that the CAB failed to work for you.
If you want to try manually configuring the network connection details then see this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=238042
Alternatively, I've updated my CAB post to detail how to remove old network connections before installing the CAB file:

Hopefully one of the above will get your device connected again.

X01HT(Hermes200) & AT&T's MediaNet Max

I just got this X01HT(Hermes200) with WM6 (Schap's 3.30c ROM) from eBay, and I am new to this forum. I am thinking to sign up with AT&T's MediaNet Max plan. Since it is NOT a Cingular 8525 phone "officially" supported by AT&T, I suspect the settings to access MediaNet and Cingular Video could be different, and if I call AT&T, they will not help because I am not using the phone they support. Could anybody help with the settings, or is there already a link (I searched and did not find it)? Thanks!

Thanks Mike for the links. But they are for Cingular (AT&T) 8525 which AT&T supports (meaning with Media Net URL already coded in the Today screen and in the AT&T ROM ? etc.) , and mine is X01HT with a non-AT&T ROM. I copied Cingular Video's URL from my son's AT&T-supported phone onto the PIE Address Bar on my X01HT, and the return error message said "CV is only available on supported 3G phones." But I know for a fact that my X01HT is a 3G phone...
Trying to follow the instructions on the second link, I did not even have Media Net on the "Select Networks" list so I could not go any further. I must be missing something and obviously a hopeless newbie. Perhaps some links specifically for using X01HT(Hermes200) with AT&T's Media Net would help to propel me into the wonderful world of MediaNetitng...

There are all different way to use the X01HT on AT&T network. If you don't mind use WM5, the esaliest way is to just DL the latest rom for AT&T - http://www.america.htc.com/support/8525/software-downloads.html.
If you want WM6, then you have to setup the MediaNet connection manuelly.

Hi maximuz329, thanks for your 3 postings responding to my question. The last one's link really helps. Now I can browse the net with URL typed into the address bar. One more question: what is the URL for Cingular Video for my X01HT(Hermes200), or any other way to access it beside typing-in the URL? Thanks again.

Bump for help

Here is a Metro carrier cab i made.
Automated Metro PCS WAP and Arcsoft CABs for Windows Mobile CDMA Devices.​
Motorola Q's DO NOT support Arcsoft so DO NOT install those CABs, you may only use the Carrier CAB..​
I have added a new Version 5.2.32.2R1 and added Metros changes to my old (original) CABs.
1: Please delete/overwrite/rename the IOTA folder in device memory/program files (if exists, usually stock ROMs)
2: Please delete the HTC Guardian shortcut or equivalent from device memory/windows/startup folder (if exists, usually stock ROMs) and reboot your device.
3: Install my Security Policy Lifter CAB (you may or may not need this depending on the ROM you use) and reboot your device.
4: Now choose a CAB to install your options and explanations are below. Obviously reboot your device after installation.
The HTC Titan MMS Fix versions I only found needed on a HTC Titan with a Stock ROM. Most custom ROMs including Mine dont have the Default Connection string issue. MMS always works.. So you can user the "Other" versions if using a Titan with a custom ROM or another WM CDMA device. The Metro Carrier CAB is for people that just want to set up their data Connection on Metro PCS *it is not required for my cabs that have WAP in the name* . You dont have to do anything but install. No deleting any registry settings or connections for all of these CABs! They do all the work for you.
For the CABs with WAP or the Carrier CAB all you have to do after reboot is make sure phone is unplugged and open internet explorer. Navigate to a real page like yahoo.com and a prompt will come up. Enter your [email protected] and password is "metropcs" lowercase and no quotes. Blank domain, click save password. Then OK, or Done.
If you are going to try several of them just make sure to uninstall old CAB before new one. Easy.
Also if you are going to use these for another Carrier just remember that each Arcsoft of mine has the MetroPCS SetMdn fix in the start up folder. It woulnt hurt you but may as well get rid of it if not using Metro PCS.

Ryan Mogul Metro PCS Carrier CAB <--Just sets up your Metro PCS Data Connection
These CABs totally blow away any others created before. I spent a lot of time on these. A little taste of everything for everyone. Here is the other great thing about these CABs and they are the first of its kind. You do not have to edit your registry first! You do not have to delete any existing Data Connections! My CABs take care of all that work.
For example when I tested my new method out I created a few dummy connections using my phone. I also went into the registry HKLMS arcsoft and added a bunch of bogus keys. I then changed my connection to one of the bogus ones. Top and Bottom networks were bogus. Then I installed my Cricket WAP and Arcsoft 5_0_31_7 (non Titan Fix version my ROMs dont need default connection fix to operate properly). The CAB totally deleted all existing connections with the exception of the ones that are supposed to be there. My work network, secure wap, internet, my isp etc.. And it installed the data connection ready to activate using the browser like normal. Then I checked the Arcsoft keys and the bogus ones were gone. Everything was how its supposed to be.
The point is with all of these CABs you dont have to do anything but install to device memory and sit back let it do all the work. Absolutely great!
If it doesnt install soft reset your device and try again. Do not check messages first just reboot and install.
If it still doesnt install try another CAB, your Stock NOOB ROM is probably affecting your ability to install such CABs.

Your the man Ryan!!!!

Ryan.... you may have saved my bacon, player. I'm about to throw your CAB on and see what happens.

Well, you got me one step closer. I can now send emails via Gmail but still not internet. I check all my setting and I'm fairly sure I've got them set correctly. Any ideas? Whenever I try to hit IE, it dials the #777 connection I set up and it says connecting... then locating.... then... this page can't be opened because the connection has been lost. I updated my PRL (i believe it's 2002). Any ideas?
Thanks again.

Where did you find this ROM? His site is down and I can't find it anywhere?

He just moved his site, R4R Loaded http://www.sskusers.com/Titan.html

I followed those and they all come back broken.

Wow!! I found a copy of R4R.... omfg... it's so sick. I love it. the interface is so dope. I flashed it, hard reset, and ran the metropcs carrier cab... still not net. It must be a setting I'm messing up. I went through and made sure that everything was my number and nothing said sprint on my nam, w.ip. and all that but something tells me that there's something on that profile that should be nulled out. can anybody tell me what should be filled in and what should be empty (or zeroed out) in the settings?

Hey buddy hope this helps you.
Here is what I can suggest for you. The obvious things have to be set up right like PST settings. I would consult with udfxrookie as my CAB got him out of his jam with Metro PCS. Ask him about the PST settings and also you may have to Un-Authenticate and Re-Authenticate as described in my Cricket PST settings thread. Just use the Metro Values instead of the Cricket values. The HDR auth & PPP username and Password part.
This is a PM from udfxrookie

Yeah, carrier cab worked out perfect, back online and MMS settings are up and running, thanks again so much. Your a lifesaver

Now after making sure your Metro PCS PST settings are correct. Was the first thing you did when you are done flashing the phone and didnt touch a single thing (settings etc..) did you install MY Metro Carrier CAB and wait a little while then soft reset?
If that was fine then after the soft reset did you make sure your Phone WAS NOT plugged in to the Computer before attempting to access the Internet on the Phone to set up the @metropcs.com and password crap? The Phone needs to be unplugged from PC as when the Phone is plugged in its using your Home PC's internet connection and will not set up right.
After these steps you should be set to jet. Only other thing I can think of is you may NOT have a Data plan with Metro PCS, or may need to have the account refreshed. Let us know how it worked out.

I made a Full Metro PCS Programmer CAB.

Thanks loads for the help. I'm about to try the CAB again.
Wait.... what do you mean by ?go into IE and enter your name and password"? Where do you enter that at? I entered that into my connection info but not my proxy info.
Also... how do you get to the epst area with your ROM? My dialer code (##778#) isn't working now. Did I mess something up?

Make sure your phone is unplugged from Computer for next step. That is open internet explorer on the phone and navigate to a real webpage. yahoo.com etc.. then a prompt will come up telling you what to do, enter your [email protected] , password is metropcs. Make sure to click save password. Then that should be it.
You dont have to enter the proxy or anything... Both of my cabs already do that!! You may have to go into select networks and make the top drop down menu My work network, and Bottom one MetroPCS, you can fiddle around with those until you achieve what you need.
And about going into EPST use the diagnostic shortcut in start bar/programs/diagnostic..
You probably have smart dial on thats why you are having problems. Try ##778 call, ##778# call. If you cant get in with all three suggestions then idk. Reading my threads would of already told you this knowledge as well. I didnt even know you are using MY ROM. Here is what you said a couple posts ago, and R4R is not my ROM

just wanted to know if metropcs will know that im using sprint mugol as a phone instead of their phone if i flash my mugol using your rom and carrier cab? I'm thinking of switching over from sprint to metropcs. I want to try their first month free first before I make the switch because I want to know if that will cause any trouble. I like the $45 plan they have. Others who have metropcs if you can give me feedback on this as well that would great too, my sprint is expiring this month on 22nd and ive been itching on switching somewhere else.
Thanks

sprint sucks
I had sprint for several years thru my family's business and was never really impressed with the service. The business closed due to the crappy economy and I ended up having to get a metro. signed up for the unlimited talk/text plan and bought their samsung slider. I like the service and have recently learned that ppc could be flashed over. I now have the sprint mogul fully operational with mms and web and hands down I love it....everyone who sees my phone thinks it is cool as hell. looking to upgrade to touch pro in the near future. If u live in an area that offers metro then go for it. it might b a pain in the ass to get them to put the smartphones esn on their network but just go to one of the smaller stores and offer the worker a few bucks to put the esn in as a razor v3....that what i did.

Yea I agree, if trying to activate a Mogul on almost any CDMA Carrier you might want to lie to them and say your phone is a Motorola V3C, or if that particular Carrier doesnt have a Motorola V3C then find out what phone they carry that has 3G EVDO and tell them you are using that phone. This way their will be no problems obtaining EVDO or in some cases not being able to put the phone on the account.
While I am in here, I have updated the Metro Carrier CAB's because I noticed that a value was set that tells you when a text has been read by the other person. I had thought I didnt include that value but I guess I had a lot to do that day.
The CAB's are updated with Working Dialer Codes, and will get rid of that annoying System Administrator message letting you know your text was received and read. If you do not want to re-download the CAB then navigate to this reg entry and change the Value from 1 to 0.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\OEM\SMS
"Delivery Ack" Change value from 1 to 0
Also for those with a Mogul, I have a fully tested WAP/MMS Metro ROM that I cooked (in my ROM threads), you do NOT need a carrier cab or any edits. The ROM is fully programmed for WAP/MMS all you have to do is activate the internet first while phone is unplugged.. Like you have to on any Custom Carrier Cooked ROM..

so you mean they really can't detect what kind of phone it is through ESN? That's what I was worried about because when I log in to sprint it has a picture of what kind of phone I'm currently using so they know. That is interesting and at the same time exciting. Ohh can't wait for my contract to end. I saw a couple of small stores in my area about 4 or 5 think.
Do they allow swapping the phone during the free month so atleast I can be really sure it'll work with my mugol? I called their CS # line and the CS sounds really dull as if she doesn't care and keeps telling me she can't do nothing at all.

that is awesooooommmm a fully set metro rom. this just made it easier and easier for me to switch and save tons of money.

Fixed both metro cabs
I found problems with both of my Metro cabs and they are now fixed. Just make sure to delete any existing connections before installing a cab.
The problem was it not provisioning right and the web prompt never coming up asking you for your information. I got that sorted out so those that tried this and it failed. Try it again.

HTC P3600/Dopod D810 3G & HSDPA problems

Hi,
I'm relatively new to the whole customising the HTC/Dopod phones for starters.
Now my problem started with my old OS (WM6.1 Pro) which was installed on the phone when I purchased it started locking up.
I then went to refresh the ROM and flashed it with the OEM ROM from HTC, only to find it back dated it to WM6 (how disappointed I was).
After much searching on this site I finally came across one ROM that appealed to me with the features it contained and the way it was presented (WM 6.1.0.4.7.5 Digital.rar http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=494727).
After sucessfully flashing the ROM I had to get hold of my network provider (Optus Australia) to get the service settings for using internet/mms services.
They tried to send me them through their automatic way (assuming sms based), however failed relentlessly. Eventually I got sent a PDF to explain how to do this.
Now here it comes. I followed the instructions, however now my phone will only connect to GPRS and never 3G or HSDPA.
Could someone please help me out and let me know if it could be the ROM I'm using (if so, could someone link me to a ROM for 6.1 Pro with similar features that will rectify the issue), I need an extra CAB to install (if so, where do I get it?) or if the settings they gave me are just GPRS settings (if so, is anyone able to provide the correct setting?).
I realise this is one rather lengthy post, and I do apologise, though much appreciation to anyone who can assist and Ihave done my best to give the information required.
Here is the link for the PDF that I was sent containing the instructions.
(Apologies for it being a megaupload.com link, the file was 5kb too big to attach)
Regards, Bryan

Don't worry, all fixed.
I found the issue lay within the Network Settings. Somehow the "Network Selection" had been set to "GSM" and not "Auto".
With this now set to "Auto" and the setting given by the provider (in the link provided above), I was able to rectify the issue.
Any Optus customers (Pre-Paid or Post Paid) feel free to download the manual I uploaded for future reference of Gateways and IP adresses for GPRS/WAP/HTTP/MMS settings and usage.

Any HD2 users in Japan?

Are any of you HD2 owners in Japan?
I'm thinking of getting an HD2 and getting it to Japan.
I'll charge it via USB/PC.
Am I right in thinking I can simply use my current Sim card and continue using the HD2 so long as I use the same Access point and Password for my current carrier? (My current setup is unlimited/SoftBank.)
In other words - the actual phone hardware should make no difference right - so long as the services you use and the login details are the same?
Any opinions would be welcome.
Thanks.

Softbank Pre-paid MMS
I have a slightly different problem: -
I'm using a pre-paid SIM card in my HD2 with unlimited e-mails. I can call and send/receive SMS's no problem. But when someone sends me an MMS (all messages sent to my [email protected] address from phones or internet are treated as MMS), I get the message notification which shows the subject line but; when click to download the message it says that I cannot download. I assume that this is because, although I have unlimited e-mails (via my [email protected] address) I don't actually have internet access; is that right?
I've tried installing Zgembo's S!Mail, but it doesn't seem to install without his manila...which is for a different phone and so messes up the phone interface. Even then, I couldn't get the damn thing to send out an e-mail.
All I want to do is send and receive phone e-mails (or S!Mails, if you're keen). Any and all assistance will be much appreciated!

Went to his website and followed the excellent step-by-step instructions and now am ridiculously happy!

Hi Everyone,
I'm bumping this thread as I'm a Softbank HD2 User. I'm currently using an iPhone Sim Card (Black one).
I was just wondering what radio you guys are using as I couldn't get a decent signal after trying so many of them.
From my experience it seems 2.15.50.14 is the best .
What about you ?
Cheers,
I.

I just have it on auto-detect and haven't had any signal problems. I'm sure you've tried it already though...

You should have no problem. I am Softbank too. I have an HD2 & I finnally found a rom that will eccept the softbank MMS & Smail sending & receiving software, (Zgembo Softbank MMS). All is working great now. I had to try many roms to find one that would work, this one does. (Build 21914.5.0.93) WM 6.5 OS Version 5.2.21914.

BeeGee Link, please
I see that you all got MMS working on the HD2 + Softbank + Prepaid - would you be kind enough to post a link in BeeGee's site where the process is described?
I've been searching around there (and in XDAdevelopers) and can't seem to find that post that explains what to do to get MMS on the HTC HD2...
thanks!!
